User root has permissions rwx.  Group games has permissions
r-x.  Everyone else has no access (permission ---).

You're getting "Permission denied" because you're not running as root and 
you're not a member
of group "games".

Thanks David for pointing it.
Your are correct. What was confusing to me is the fact that I logged into the system via ssh to my account and "su" to use who was in group "games" but for some reason or another the games would not execute.

When I ssh directly to the user account, it worked :-/
